It's too early for the robins!!! We have a snowstorm in progress. The flock I saw earlier in the week is still here, stranded in a stand of pines by the building to the north of me. They've been joined by about five Cedar Waxwings. They were feeding on these crabapple? berries. There must have been thirty of them in the trees. Argh. I had no birdseed, but I did have some Cheerios. Do you think that will hurt them?

Sunday Update on Birds: Not here anymore. And no little corpses lying feet up are found, so they must have decided it was time to continue their journey.
